Kydex OWB for Ruger Sp101?? Comp-Tac??

Does anyone use a kydex OWB for a Ruger Sp101 with a 2 1/4" barrel or any revolver for that matter? I am thinking of getting a Comp-Tac belt holster for my Sp101 for occasional CCW use, but mostly to carry while hiking, camping, and other outdoors activities. Except for a few IWBs I have not seen many revolvers in kydex. Any thoughts? Thanks

I just ordered a Kramer MSP Paddle in horsehide for my 2 1/4" Ruger SP101. With the LEO Discount it's not too bad. I really like the "easy on - easy off" feature of this Holster. I guess I could've gone with a Fobus Paddle, but it just doesn't seem as "classy".

I figured most people would suggest leather. Kydex appealed to me because it is more weather resistant than leather.

I have looked at some nice leather owb from a few of the makers on this board and they look great; but was just curious on the kydex.

I do understand the preference for leather for revolvers. Such as kydex will never touch my S&W 19-3, blued and wood grips do not work for me with kydex. However stainless steel and rubber stocks like on the SP-101 does not bother me, go figure. I guess I will see what I finally decide or find.

I often carry a 642 or a 640 in a Fobus Paddle holster. I have done this for probably 10 years so don't bother to tell me what junk it is. They hold the guns securely and are easy to put on and remove.
I fairly recently purchased Fobus paddles for my two KTs. One is a P3AT and the other a P32.

They have worked fine. Although I have leather holsters by the top makers, except Alessi, I still carry the Fobus at times due to the convenience.
